To be honest, I never thought the wet season was that bad. I found the close humidity the worst part of it and not torrential downpours; though they do happen. It will still be awfully hot so don't think of bringing any big raincoats. Just something light, thin and breathable is the key. If a typhoon does come, you might find yourself going through a lot of brollys, but they can be purchased in the convenience store for next to nothing. Trust me, you will still have an awesome time.
